Mitophagy

Urolithin A + EGCG activates mitophagy, clears damaged mitochondria, and reduces oxidative stress for cellular energy and healthy aging.

Clears damaged mitochondria

Removes dysfunctional mitochondria so cells can renew their energy systems.

Supports cellular energy in the brain

Healthy mitochondria help power neurons and support cognitive resilience.

Builds strength and endurance

Improved mitochondrial efficiency helps muscles generate energy more effectively during activity.

Enhanced Mitochondrial Renewal

In a preclinical Alzheimer’s disease model, the combination of Urolithin A and EGCG increased signaling pathways involved in mitochondrial biogenesis compared to untreated controls. Key genes involved in mitochondrial renewal increased following combined treatment.

1 Data derived from a preclinical study evaluating mitochondrial biogenesis gene expression following combined Urolithin A and EGCG treatment in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model (hAbKI mice).

Follow The Science

Mitophagy Activation

Urolithin A supports mitophagy, your body’s way of removing old, dysfunctional mitochondria—helping cells run more efficiently.

Activates AMPK Pathways

By activating AMPK, Urolithin A helps your body burn fat, manage blood sugar, and produce clean cellular energy.

Modulates mTOR for Renewal

Urolithin A gently slows mTOR activity—encouraging cellular renewal and better stress recovery.

Reduce Chronic Inflammation

Gut-driven SCFAs suppress systemic inflammation, supporting cardiovascular, cognitive, and metabolic resilience.

Mimic Caloric Restriction without 
Fasting

By reducing carbohydrate availability, Acarbose acts as a calorie restriction mimetic—impacting IGF-1, insulin signaling, and mitochondrial health.

Great experience with Healthspan

I’ve had a great experience with Healthspan. All of the representatives have been extremely responsive when sending messages on the portal, and I had a great call reviewing my initial labs with Brandon Fell.

Anthony Badillo

Grateful for Healthspan

The most knowledgeable team. Helped me evaluate my labs and put together a plan to start optimizing things. I wish my current doctors were this thorough.

Great experience with Healthspan

I’ve had a great experience with Healthspan. All of the representatives have been extremely responsive when sending messages on the portal, and I had a great call reviewing my initial labs with Brandon Fell who was extremely knowledgeable and courteous. I’ve started the Rapamycin and Acarbose protocol, and I’m looking forward to seeing what my updated labs will show in a couple months!

Frequently asked questions

What is Urolithin A?

Urolithin A is a compound derived from the gut microbiota’s transformation of ellagitannins, which are found in foods like pomegranates, walnuts, and berries. It is renowned for its ability to enhance mitochondrial function and support longevity.

How does Healthspan dose Urolithin A?

Healthspan recommends starting with 500 mg of Urolithin A daily, taken with meals. Depending on individual response and health goals, the dose can be increased to 1,000 mg.

How does Urolithin A work in the body?

Urolithin A promotes mitophagy, the selective removal of damaged mitochondria. This process helps improve mitochondrial efficiency, leading to better energy production, enhanced muscle endurance, and improved metabolic health.

What conditions may benefit from Urolithin A?

Urolithin A can benefit individuals looking to improve muscle endurance, maintain cognitive health, enhance cardiovascular function, and prevent metabolic disorders like diabetes. It is also widely used for its anti-aging properties.

What are the potential side effects of Urolithin A?

Urolithin A is well-tolerated by most individuals, though mild digestive discomfort such as bloating or nausea can occur at higher doses. Taking it with food can help minimize these effects.

How long does it take for Urolithin A to work?

While results may vary, most individuals experience improvements in muscle endurance and energy levels within 4-8 weeks. Long-term benefits for metabolic health and aging typically emerge after 12 weeks of consistent use.

Can I take Urolithin A with other supplements and medications?

It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before combining Urolithin A with other medications, particularly those that affect mitochondrial function or energy metabolism, such as metformin.

Can I take Urolithin A with my other Healthspan protocols and supplements?

Yes, Urolithin A can be integrated with other Healthspan protocols, particularly those aimed at improving energy metabolism, muscle health, and longevity.

Is Urolithin A FDA-approved?

Urolithin A is not FDA-approved for any specific medical treatments. However, it has been granted Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status by the FDA for use as a dietary supplement, particularly for its role in supporting mitochondrial health, enhancing muscle function, and promoting longevity. This designation indicates that Urolithin A is considered safe when used according to recommended guidelines.
